    My Yoder does a nice job too when diffuser plate out. I think if you have the right machine they sear fine. Just smaller surface area as compared to more conventional cookers like charcoal or gasser.

      My Rec Tec Trailblazer gets super hot, and with the Grill Grates, https://www.amazon.com/GrillGrate-13.../dp/B002MAHRAM
      it really sears. I can throw a pizza on a stone in there and it comes out great also. Sous Vide a steak and then sear it comes out wonderful.

        Here is Sous Vide steak then seared on Rec Tec Trailblazer with Grill Grates... if you want entire surface seared, turn the Grill grates over and cook on the flat side.

          Sorry, too many pics. I just realized that attached and inserted files work differently. That is why I get so many duplicates.

        As other have said and showed you, you can sear on a pellet rig. The few times I have done it, have been on a Yoder YS 640 and the only thing I was I had more of at the time was space. It was pretty cramped when I was trying to sear four steaks over the searing portion of the grate. I prefer a charcoal fire to the pellet direct fire, but it was effective.

          I CAN sear on my pellet smoker however I prefer to sear on the Weber gas passer and then smoke to temp in the Traeger
